Developer plans
to build toll road
across 5 counties
CORPUS CHRISTI (AP) — A de
veloper is rolling along with plans to
build a toll road to Laredo using a
little-known 1913 law.
But some local officials may put a
roadblock in his way.
The high-speed corridor Ralph
Durden envisions would cross five
South Texas counties: Nueces, Du
val, Jim Wells, W T ebb and Kleberg,
including a portion of the King
Ranch, one of the world’s largest op
erating cattle and horse ranches.
Durden, who said he had given up
on waiting for state and federal offi
cials to show interest in the proposal,
derives his company’s authority
from the little-known law.
Jimmy Delao, an attorney in the
Texas Secretary of State’s office in
Austin, said the law allows a private
venture, such as Durden’s, to build,
operate and maintain a toll road. It
also allows a private venture to con
demn property along the 200-mile
stretch through eminent domain
procedures.
But Tio Kleberg, vice president of
agribusiness for the King Ranch,
said he would adamantly oppose at
tempts to condemn ranch property
for the corridor. Kleberg said it
would be more logical for the state to
improve the existing link between
Corpus Christi and Laredo — U.S.
Highway 59 and State Highway 44.
“This doesn’t make sense when
you’ve got a perfectly good highway
that already exists,” Kleberg said.
Durden on Sept. 5 filed articles of
incorporation with the secretary of
state’s office for the purpose of
building a rail and highway corridor
that would connect Corpus Christi to
the burgeoning industrial activity in
Northern Mexico, Delao said.
Durden named the company
Camino Falcon Inc., the working
name for his corridor concept.
Along with former partner Joe
Fulton, Durden built major bayfront
developments including One Shore
line Plaza and the Wyndham Corpus
Christi Hotel.
He acknowledged Monday that he
had formed the corporation but de
clined to discuss the details of his
toll-road proposal.
Durden said he would hold a news
conference when he is ready to re
veal the specifics of his proposal.

HEMPSTEAD (AP) — Indict
ments alleging financial wrongdoing
by officials of Prairie View A&M
University are only first among seve
ral arrests and charges to come, au
thorities say.
Special prosecutor A.M. “Buddy”
McCaig Jr. says the indictments al
lege misconduct by current and for
mer university officials, including
some at the top.
Investigators refused to identify
those named in the six indictments
until they are arrested. They are ac
cused of misconduct in the filing and
payment of athletic department
travel vouchers.
Authorities estimated it would
take up to 10 days to arrest those in
dicted, who include “high-ranking
officials” at the university.
The Texas Rangers started inves
tigating Jan. 24 following an internal
audit of the athletic department and
a meeting of law officers and the
general counsel of the Texas A&M
University System.
Officials told the Houston Chron
icle in June that they believe more
than $100,000 is missing from the
athletic department.
Sources told the newspaper that a
Harris County grand jury is looking
at allegations including financial
misconduct in the athletic director’s
office; misconduct in filing or pay
ment of athletic department travel
vouchers; and misconduct in the
awarding of grades and scholarships
to athletes at Prairie View.
Some allegations involve poor
management in which the suspects
did not profit personally, the special
prosecutor said. Other cases involve
possible fraud, deceit and personal
profit, McCaig said.
“In my opinion, it was — from the
top down — failure to enforce exist
ing policies or to implement ad
equate policies,” he said. “Any time
you take two Texas Rangers and de
vote them to one case for nine
months, you’ve got a major prob
lem.”
The Rangers are continuing the
investigation.

Her this year, cut most sports from
the university’s programs in May
and said there was a need to “get our
house in order.”
The misconduct, which allegedly
occurred at the university before
Becton’s arrival, has been curtailed,
McCaig said.
“Present-day Prairie View A&M
University is not operating under
the same rules that allowed all this
misconduct,” he said. “General Bec
ton’s been cleaning house.”
“We still have a lot of peopleom
there,” said a Live Oak County sher
iffs officer who declined to be iden
tified. “W r e thought they (lirefiglit-
ers) had it out earlier.”
She said firefighters from George
West, neighboring Three Riversand
other volunteer departments were
notified after the blaze began at 6:32
am.
The extent of damage was un
known, said authorities who didni
know whether anyone had been
evacuated from the area. The con
tents of the tank were not immedi
ately known.
George West is about 50 mile
